About this listen
In this episode of Just The Thing, Joel and Chris turn to one of cinema’s oldest monsters as we explore the legacy of Frankenstein — from its gothic roots to Guillermo del Toro’s lush, tragic reinterpretation. Joel and Chris dig into a story already obsessed with life, death, and very bad parenting decisions to try to answer the eternal question: who would win in a fight between The Thing and Frankenstein's monster?
We unpack del Toro’s visual flair, the shifting portrayals of Victor and his Creature, and the recurring themes of responsibility, masculinity, and birth that have haunted the story for over two centuries. There’s dark humour, questionable science, performance chat, and the inevitable spiral into philosophical territory.
